In the design of the home entrance, we pursued to create a noble and ritualistic experience, borrowed the design concept of the hotel-style drop-off area, and created a circular unloading space to highlight the owner's noble status.

The width of the entrance gate reaches 27 meters. Its magnificent scale symbolizes the owner's maritime culture of investment promotion and the expectation of unlimited possibilities in the future. The design of the gate is simple and powerful, and its shape is like a flying roc, which indicates a long and smooth journey.

The gate exudes a dignified and elegant temperament, thanks to the use of high-quality and stable materials. The application of imitation bronze stainless steel not only gives the complex curved shapes a sense of historical weight but also showcases exquisite craftsmanship on the integrated sculpture in the middle. This sculpture, resembling a money tree symbolizing wealth and protection, brings good fortune to the owner. The material selection for the stone wall features Versace luxury stone, presenting a luxurious and grand atmosphere in black tones, exuding a sense of nobility.

On both sides of the electric glass door, a pair of imported welcoming pine trees are placed, with their graceful shapes and green vitality further enhancing the welcoming atmosphere of the entrance space. The continuous flow of the fountain, the starry sky-like gate canopy, and the tranquil water surface together create an extremely impressive opening experience, turning the journey home into a visual and sensory feast.

Passing through the property lobby, the first sunken courtyard that greets the owner is the primary sunken courtyard. Here, a large rainforest tank is surrounded by mist, vibrant and lively, while the clean still water reflects the tranquility of the surrounding environment. The nine-meter-high single-point fountain with extreme gushing not only provides the owners with an ultimate visual experience but also creates a clean and pure courtyard atmosphere with the ripples of the falling water.
